Most of the restaurants at the casino resort reopened today with limited seating as well as carryout options. That first reopening phase aimed to make social distancing possible, while offering some access to the property.Īccording to a message on Harrah’s Cherokee’s Facebook page, the casino will now be operating at 30% capacity and with “social distancing in place.” During that initial reopening phase only those invited patrons were able to make reservations and were permitted access to facilities at Harrah’s Cherokee. The gambling venue began sending invitations to select few customers from May 13.
The property initially reopened on May 18 but to invitation only guests. Harrah’s Cherokee closed in mid-March when North Carolina and the rest of the US began implementing measures aimed at curbing the advance of the dangerous coronavirus. The casino resumed operations at 6 am local time today and will be operating at limited capacity consistent with North Carolina and Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians guidelines. Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort, one of North Carolina’s premium gaming destinations, reopened to the public earlier today after staying closed for more than two months.
